Missing father and daughter rescued in Florida's Hillsborough County

A sheriff’s deputy teamed up with local residents to rescue a father and daughter who had been treading water for nearly an hour on Saturday, April 15, the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office (HCSO) said.

The HCSO said 31-year-old Christopher Snow and his 13-year-old daughter Alexis failed to return after they went out on a Jet Ski from Baker Creek Park. A local man and his family offered to take the deputy out on their boat to search for the pair while they waited for the marine and aviation units to arrive, local media reported.
